Mission Statement
practical vision
The Farm School is a family farm for the coming generations where people experience first hand what it means to be stewards of the earth.
We provide multi-day residential school-year and summer programs for the over 1,500 young people and their teachers, a year-long program to train adults in practical sustainable agriculture, and an on-site one-room middle school.
Young people work the land and take home the cultural history, vital experience, and personal identity that farms nurture. Teachers work alongside their students and leave with new insights into their craft and children they teach. Adults learn to farm and carry essential knowledge from one community to the next.
Careful mentoring, meaningful work, humor and kindness are at the center of all we do.
